Thinking about how a girl at Christian summer camp asked me if my dad was in Al Qaeda and I got in trouble for asking if her dad was a Klansman bc “her question was understandable”

5) Homer: it's my first day 4) McBain: up and at them! 3) Lisa: you're gonna be Bart Flanders 2) CBG: I've wasted my life 1) Homer: now *that's* religion!

The five Simpsons lines I’ve uttered most: 5) Milhouse: My Dad’s a pretty big wheel down at the cracker victory 4) McBain: Ice To See You 3) You Don’t Get Friends with Salad 2) Homer: And who can forget rat boy? 1) Comic Book Guy: “Is there a word in Klingon for lonliness? Oh yes. ‘Aag-plach!’”

Maybe if the AI people yell at me for the 5 millionth time about how I’m not using their dogshit technology that has made everyone’s lives worse I’ll finally start liking it for no conceivable reason.

Introduce yourself as what almost killed you: Hi! I'm a Sheer Limestone Cliff Above a Bramble Patch in Greece I Decided to Climb in a Swimsuit and Sandals Because I Thought It Would Be Easier Than Hiking Some More

This season is going to make the saddest internet man-children a) suddenly pretend to have always watched the show, and b) suddenly be mad at everything about it. Gimme. Now. I *need* vengeful, nigh-invincible Akasha turning a "not all men" podcaster to ash

FANGORIA@fangoria.bsky.social

Akasha will take the spotlight in the next season of AMC's INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE. Watch the first teaser within.

This isn't a joke, it's not hyperbole, this is what they actually said - and GN mentioned the same is happening to companies like G. Skill who have been selling RAM to consumers for *decades*

James GHOULizio 👻@theswweet.myatproto.social

Finally watched the GN Steam Machine video, hearing Valve employees say that the real reason some Steam Machines are going to only be 1 stick of RAM is "the memory companies give us a price and what we can buy, and if we say no they will never work with us again" is actually insane

Because they are. There isn't a question. He won't face a moment of consequence because money, but if actual justice existed he would be stripped of his wealth, be thrown into a hole, and die alone/penniless

Are Sam Altman and OpenAI liable for one of the worst gun massacres in Canadian history? Allegations in a new lawsuit point to key unanswered questions about the shooter’s troubling use of ChatGPT.

It’s inaccurate to say Mario is brave and Luigi is cowardly Luigi is afraid of death, so he runs away from danger. Mario is afraid of living, so he runs towards death. Both brothers are cowards in their own way

Archaeologists in the Holy Land just uncovered a 3,000-year-old Israelite tablet… It reads: “Iran is only weeks away from developing a nuclear weapon.”

Hey George? How much do rent, food, gas and (in the case of Americans) healthcare cost when adjusted for inflation? Have they gone up at the same rate George?

This is a rehash of the vibecession debates but median household income adjusted for inflation hit a record in 2024 (2025 data will be released in September). It’s just *not true* in any objective sense that people don’t have money anymore. It may *feel* that way but that’s different from reality.

Household median income can go up as much as it wants, but if food, rent, and gas go up just as much (if not more) than what does it matter? You still don't feel like you have any money

More context on this #Artemis II image: * This is the night side, lit by moonlight. You can see city lights in Spain & Portugal, & a sliver of day at lower right * The Sun is entirely behind Earth, which makes it a kind of solar eclipse, but w/ Earth doing the eclipsing instead of the Moon: ☀️🌍🚀🌕

There are exactly two types of reviews I have seen for this movie: 1) oh f*ck yes, all of it, in my face, omnomnom 2) the f*ck is this and why did I willingly put my eye balls in front of it?!?! Second one of these I've seen this year actually! The other was "Wuthering Heights"

The Bride!: Jessie Buckley gets possessed by Mary Shelley (!), dies, and is reanimated as Christian Bale's bride-to-be in Maggie Gyllenhaal's disasterpiece, a stitch-together mess of tones and ideas with no centre. Goes from critique of misogyny and patriarchy, to Young Frankenstein references.

I have two trans partners. I remember when one of them was using the phrase "transwomen" early in our relationship and I pointed out "I've been told its trans-women" She looked at me for a second and said "that seems like a silly thing to get caught up on". Anyway, don't know why I thought of that

Hey all I'm looking for work! I'm experienced in character design and costume for games and film as well as illustration for books and TTRPGS. I'm based out of BC Canada looking for freelance or full time. My portfolio is linked in the first comment, thank you for shares!

Canadian here. I was in 10th grade, and on the day it happened we propped a CRT computer monitor on top of a Pentium 3 tower and watched MSNBC for a solid hour, until our internet crashed. After that, it never directly impacted my life outside of macro-scale geopolitics. No recruiters or anything

The NHL is proud to announce that next season's Winter Classic outdoor game will feature the Toronto Maple Leafs facing off against the DHS All Stars at the newly-built ICE Detention Center Warehouse in Social Circle, Georgia.

When the AI bubble bursts and takes the majority of the worldwide economy with it, the most compassionate thing we can do as a species is to burn this man at the stake

SAM ALTMAN: “People talk about how much energy it takes to train an AI model … But it also takes a lot of energy to train a human. It takes like 20 years of life and all of the food you eat during that time before you get smart.”

Watching the second Mummy movie. I've never walked out of anything, but *damn* that was close. Took everything great about the first one and pissed all over it

woke stifler@yelix.bsky.social

fun question: what’s the maddest you’ve ever been leaving a movie theater? not necessarily worst movie you’ve seen, but the one that just pissed you off the most. mine is Batman v Superman

I'd say this makes me unreasonably angry, but I think its just the right amount of angry
